TEXILIANS AT HEALTH EXPO 2018, GUYANA.

Good health is more than just being free of any disease; it is about the positivity in one’s outlook. As the old adage goes - ‘Prevention is better than cure’ - it’s wise to keep track of one’s health status through awareness and timely check-ups. 
According to the World Health Organization (W.H.O), heart diseases, pulmonary disorders, cancer and tuberculosis were among the top global causes of death in 2016. Lack of knowledge/awareness, poor accountability and limited access to medical facilities are challenges that people are fighting even in the 21st century. Today, governments, healthcare agencies and denizens as such, are working collectively towards curbing and controlling challenges in global healthcare.
